Early Years Child Progress Tracker - SEND Inclusion Team (SENDIT) Guidance
The statutory EYFS requires Early Year’s Practitioners to review and monitor children’s progress within the EYFS. Lack of progress or delay in Learning and Development, in particular in a Prime area might indicate that the child requires additional and different support (SEN Support) because they have Special Educational Needs and/or a disability (SEND).
Please note that a child with a Disability for example hearing impairment, but not SEN might be at risk of delay, if reasonable adjustments and additional support are not put in place, so please use the Progress Tracker to help monitor progress.
What is the EY Child Progress Tracker and why use it?
▪ The aim of the Tracker is to have a consistent format used across Bath and North East Somerset Early Years Settings for submitting as evidence to the non-statutory SEND Inclusion Panel (SENDIP) and/or the Statutory SEN Panel (Education, Health and Care Needs assessment). It is used when requesting additional targeted support and funding from either panel.
▪ The Tracker will form part of the evidence alongside specialist reports and other documentation.
▪ This tracker has been developed for practitioners to complete with the key person supported by the SENCo/Manager of the setting.
▪ The Tracker is directly linked to the EYFS Learning and Development Outcomes.
▪ Children on SEN Support at this level should already have in place a One Page Profile, Single support ‘My Plan’ and Targeted Outcomes (or equivalent).
▪ Families should already know that there are concerns about their child’s progress, however if the child has significant delay or has regressed due to ill health or sudden deterioration in behaviour then please ask the Area SENCo’s for advice.
How to use it?
▪ Have the full EYFS Outcomes in front of you (don’t guess them).
▪ It should be based on observations and the picture of the child’s learning and development over time. Settings should not test the child.
▪ Practitioners should consult with the family and professionals but base their judgement on how the child is within their setting.
▪ If the child is in dual placement it will be expected that both settings will complete this independently to give a holistic picture of the child in different environments. If the child only attends one or two sessions and you find it hard to make a judgement then add this information on the request (don’t guess).
▪ Read the Area of Learning and Development and Aspect statements starting always with Birth to 11 months (whatever the age or stage of child).
▪ Blank Box – If child is not yet emerging in any of the behaviours leave blank.
▪ Emerging – If fewer than 50% of the behaviours in each band are demonstrated then mark E for Emerging
▪ Developing – If 50% or more behaviours in the band are demonstrated, but not fully then mark D for Developing
▪ Secure – If all behaviours are demonstrated consistently and you have evidence through observation over time then mark S for secure.
▪ The areas that you record as E (Emerging) and D (Developing) should link with your Targeted Outcomes and My Plan (best way to support me). They should pinpoint the targeted services you have in place for example Physiotherapy/Speech and Language Therapy/ Theraplay, Occupational Therapy).
▪ The Tracker will need to be reviewed regularly as this will form key evidence for your requests for additional support alongside evidence from other professionals involved.
